Fishers resident Gurinder Singh has filed to run for one of the three at-large Fishers City Council seats.

“An interest in public policy based on my past experiences along with the desire to give back to my community are among the prevailing factors as to my decision to run for office,” stated Singh, who filed Feb. 6. “The community of Fishers has been a wonderful place to live, work and raise our family.  I want to be a part of giving back through public service.”
